There is only 1 pitch left on the EMS block now, if you want it let me know ASAP.  After that you are on your own with finding


a pitch.  My job is done :D

LAST CHANCE FOR THE LAST RESERVED PITCH 232 AT KELLING BEFORE IT IS HANDED BACK AND LOST TO US

All,

 

Can I please ask that if you are unable to make the Kelling Heath star party this year and you have booked and paid for a pitch, can I ask that you speak to a member of the EMS staff first, prior to phoning Kelling.

 

We will attempt to buy the pitch off you and then sell it on (if possible) to another member on here or somebody else in the stargazing community.

 

This means the pitch stays within EMS and is not available to anybody else.

 

The booking system at Kelling has changed since 2015, so if you book and pay for a pitch, that is yours for next year and the year after that and so on, meaning you have first dibs every year.  If you cant make it and sell your pitch back to Kelling, then if somebody else buys that pitch, you have lost it for good.

 

I am keen to try and keep the EMS contingent together and not split up via none EMS people.

 

Thanks, any questions, please shout up.

I'm planning on going. If no EMS pitches are available what fields are adjacent to the EMS contingent?

 

Cheers

There are only 3 fields for caravans and tents ETC and these are the red, yellow and blue fields.  EMS are on blue and red and yellow are not really adjacent, yellow is a bit of a walk and red is near by but getting on red is difficult.  Your best bet will be to try and get on blue.

If you do manage to get on blue, don't worry if your under trees, some people bring their kit into a clear spot in the middle of our area and leave it there, there is always so one from EMS knocking about, so your kit should be OK.

Those fishing beds are awesome to sleep on and really good for stargazing with bins. If I'd known you wanted one Martin we have a fishing superstore over in the next village who have them always in stock. :)
